Hope Is the Anchor That Keeps Us Steady



Hope is the flame that burns within,
A spark that ignites even in the darkest of sin.
It gives us courage to face our fears,
And dries the tears we've cried for years.

Hope is the light that shines so bright,
Guiding us through the darkest night.
It whispers softly in our ear,
"Keep going, my dear, you have nothing to fear."

Hope is the anchor that keeps us steady,
When the winds of life are strong and unsteady.
It reminds us that we're not alone,
And gives us strength to carry on.

So hold on to hope, don't let it go,
For it will carry you through the ebb and flow.
With hope in your heart and a smile on your face,
You can conquer any challenge, any place.

Hope is a flame that burns so bright,
A guiding light through darkest night,
A seed of strength that helps us cope,
And fills our hearts with endless hope.

With hope in hand, we bravely face,
The trials that we cannot erase,
And though the journey may be tough,
We know that we will rise above.

For hope gives us the will to try,
And helps us soar when we feel we can't fly,
It fuels our dreams and ignites our soul,
And gives us the courage to reach our goal.

So hold on tight to hope each day,
And let it light your every way,
For even in the darkest hour,
Hope has the power to bring us power.

So let us never lose sight of hope,
For with it, we can surely cope,
And know that no matter what life may bring,
Hope will always help us spread our wings.
